On our 2012 Focus Sport 30,000 service it was noticed the pads wouldn’t last another 10,000 klm’s, I wasn’t going for the factory pads as they are very soft and the mess they make on the rims is like nothing I have seen on any car before, cleaning the brake dust of the wheels takes as long as cleaning the rest of the car.
I contacted race brakes Sydney and after a quick discussion with Matt he sent me a set of brembo pads, brembo now make pads for most makes and models. Pads were fitted after the discs were machined approx 8 weeks ago, pads work well not as soft as factory pads therefore don’t bite as hard; my wife notices no difference in pedal feel and they are quiet, the brake dust is minimal which is a relief. Next service I will measure the discs see how they are traveling, after 30,000 klm’s and machined they were in spec by only 1mm. Brembo pads can be purchased through our site sponsor Race Brakes Sydney, offer an excellent overnight postal service, these are a pad worth considering as a replacement.
